OMGZ! Workfrom has been huge for me as a remote worker and leader.
Worker: I love having a "place" to express myself and vibe as I work. I love having a "place" that coworkers and I can stay connected while separately executing on our work.
Leader: I love having a more casual way to be " in the work room" with teammates. Anytime I've needed a place to work on similar or adjacent projects with reports, I've used workfrom to keep us "shoulder to shoulder" virtually.
All of this from a legit awesome crew of folks that aren't building an interruption machine that is going to juice MAUs and the stock price.
"A meetup metaverse made by you" just in the browser? Yes please.
@chrismessina hey there. You can create and group spaces to form a "neighborhood" of persistent virtual places where people can meet and interact. Endless possibilities. Example: https://workfrom.com/browse/demo
@darrenbuckner got it, thanks. Why Matthew Ball's book "The Metaverse" is making the rounds, I was curious if your definition differs from his, which it does: "it is a persistent and interconnected network of 3D virtual worlds that will eventually serve as the gateway to most online experiences, and also underpin much of the physical world."
@chrismessina yes, and that definition resonates from my previous vantage point. I must say that having witnessed the ingenuity and creation happening on our new platform, I'm convinced we'll see an an "Indie" metaverse of sorts where anyone can set up their own spaces and link them in meaningfully ways with other people's spaces.
Hey, everyone! Darren from Workfrom here.
We love having freedom and flexibility in how and where we work, and our team has been building work-from-anywhere tools since it was a thing to scour Yelp for places with โgood wifiโ mentioned in the reviews.
We founded our startup, Workfrom, as a bet that anywhere work would take over the world, and that's happening.
In 2016, we launched a popular app to help professionals find great places to get their work done in cities everywhere. A year later, we added a professional virtual coworking community so that people always have others to work around. In 2019, we built a trusted app that helped local coworking spaces offer workspace to the growing mobile workforce. Over the past year, weโve been developing a new online meetup platform to help even more people connect and to further our vision of enabling freedom, flexibility, and community in Anywhere Work.
Today we're publicly launching Virtual Cafes ๐บ๐ฝ ๐ ๐จ
Why? We want it to be super-easy for you to create beautiful places people love visiting โ and you love hosting. We all know online community-building only grows from here on out, and we need new tools that let us personalize these frequent get-togethers.
Every Virtual Cafe you create is:
- Fully customizable to match your vision and brand
- Optimized for repeat and drop-in meetups
- Able to send arrival notifications via Slack and SMS
- Equipped with a front door that can be open or closed
The easier it is to love the places we meet, the more connected we feel when we go there.
You can start creating your meetup metaverse now at: https://www.workfrom.com/virtual...
You can use the code FREEMONTH to get a free month of any plan you ultimately choose.
We enable thousands of online meetups each month. We ship new updates every week. We canโt wait for you to start creating ๐ค
Here's to your success!

I'm super excited for the Workfrom Cafes!
Being a remote work consultant and a community leader these Cafรฉs help a lot to create different types of events with different goals, it can be a social platform to create meaningful conversations or a deep work session where we use pomodoro to go into deep work together to foster focus and a mission aligment.
I am just testing it out for different types of events but I love how flexible the platform is.
Definitely the Cafรฉs will help remote companies and communities all around the globe to create meaningful moment together.
Just in the last month, the Virtual Cafes have been instrumental in helping shift a Zoom/meeting heavy workplace culture. The cafes have enabled our team to embrace more of a "drop-in" to get an answer mindset and slowly shift away from the need to schedule a 30 minute meeting for every topic that comes up.
Next up, we are looking at using the virtual cafes externally for community building and I can't wait to dig into the branding features more.
@nicole_healy That's so great! Love to hear we've been able to help with that shift from defaulting to synced meetings. Thanks so much for your support!
